电梯 (diàntī) can be used to refer to an elevator, lift, or escalator in a variety of contexts. For example, it can be used to refer to the physical object itself, such as when someone says "请把我送到电梯那儿。 (Qǐng bǎ wǒ sòng dào diàntī nàr.) - Please take me to the elevator". It can also be used to refer to the action of using an elevator, lift, or escalator, such as when someone says "我们坐电梯了 (Wǒmen zuò diàntī le.) - We took the elevator". It can also be used to refer to the location of an elevator, lift, or escalator, such as when someone says "电梯在哪里？ (Diàntī zài nǎlǐ?) - Where is the elevator?".

In Chinese, 電梯 (diàn tī) is a general term that can be used to refer to both elevators and escalators.
Yes there are different words:
- Escalators are sometimes called 自动扶梯 (zì dòng fú tī) or 电动扶梯 (diàn dòng fú tī) in Chinese.
- Elevators are called 直梯 (zhí tī).
